What If You've Been Missing Half the Story?

imageWhen Matthew proclaimed the virgin birth, he quoted from a Greek translation of Isaiah, not the Hebrew text your Bible uses today.

When Paul debated in synagogues across the Roman Empire, he cited Scripture from a version most modern Christians have never read.

When the early church fathers defended the faith and defined Christian doctrine, they preached from a text that's been largely forgotten for 1,800 years.

That text is the Septuagint—the Greek Old Testament completed between 270 B.C. and 100 A.D.—and it's time you discovered what the apostles knew.



Introducing The LXX Scrolls

imageEvery week, I take a passage of Scripture and explore it through the dual lens of the Hebrew Masoretic Text and the Greek Septuagint. You'll discover:

  • Where the texts differ and why it matters for interpretation
  • What the apostles saw when they quoted these passages
  • How the early church fathers understood prophecy and Christology
  • Theological depths hidden in textual variants
  • Practical applications for your spiritual life today

This isn't dry academic theory. It's living, breathing engagement with God's Word that will transform how you read your Bible.
